Preferences Dialog

The Tag Style Dialog allows you to change the representation details of Tag Mode.

Figure 1. Preferences: Tag Style



Figure 2. Preferences: General



Figure 3. Preferences: Search Paths



Figure 4. Preferences: Applications



Figure 5. Preferences: File Types



To add new file extensions to the Open Dialog and Open with Template Dialog use the File Types tab. Just add space-separated wild-card values (e.g. *.xhtml *.html) and a description (e.g. XHTML files).

Figure 6. Preferences: XML Catalogs



Serna fully supports OASIS XML Catalogs (Committee Specification 06 Aug 2001).

Important:

It is also possible to specify the XML Catalog file only for the specific document template. See Document Template Properties, xml-catalogs property.

Figure 7. Preferences: Folding



This tab specifies the following parameters:
  1. Large document folding parameters.

    When opening a document, Serna estimates the length of the document. It counts elements in the document, and divides the result by an average number of elements per page. (This number is usually specific to the current document template).

    Note, that this estimation is not exact, and only prevents you from lengthy formatting if the document is suspected to be very large.

    You can set the number of pages after which Serna should consider the document as large.

    If Serna considers the document as large, it may collapse some elements, open the document normally, or ask the user.

  2. Undo/Redo stack depth.

    It is possible to set the maximum undo/redo stack depth to limit memory consumption. Allowed values are between 10 and 9999. The default value is 30.
